AFC Bournemouth

West Brom were a solid outfit under Tony Pulis last season and there is no sign of the Baggies changing their style of play for the upcoming season. Bournemouth in contrast, were the complete opposite. Bournemouth liked to be expansive in their play and they have added veteran striker Jermain Defoe to help add some more goals. Despite his addition to the squad, it is hard to look past West Brom and their stubborn defence. They will be resolute enough to halt any Bournemouth attack whilst being able to find gaps in the opposition defence to win the match.
